The ending took me completely by suprise. I never saw that coming. I have no choice but to watch the next video now, hope it's just as good as this one. =)
this is my favorite clip, i love them all but this is my favorite one! thank you so much for these wonderful stories, we need more people with experience and stories like you on here!
That was one of the best endings ever....Next time I might talk about sex so pleaase come back... you couldnt have picked a better comment to end with.... BTW love you vids...just started watching them...
You were a little scallywag:)) LOL. only joking. Just like all little boys. I wish you didn't have time restrictions. Having to end it. Always want to hear more.
Have some respect. This gentleman (a geezer, as you call him) has walked many miles, lived in an era when things were not as easy as today. Gone through the depression, war etc, hardships. If you cannot respect him and other elderly people then stay away from them, and stop hurting them with these kind of comments. Have a heart, you can't be all that bad?
why do you keep on watching his videos? you don't have to. peter doesnt claim he is revealing the ultimate meaning of life, or wants to guide others to find the secret of life. he is our friend and chats with us, just as you do with your own frends. we enjoy his company, and he enjoys ours.
I was gonna reply to you, but you're account is closed. Haha! Never mind! Perhaps the YouTube management were worried about your health, because you seemed to be deluded that people online are your "friends". Hmm.
Why not? Gotta take the rough with the smooth in life. And for all the good stuff on YouTube, this is some of the "rough". I also like to see all the saddo's saying stuff like "oooh peter your videos inspire me to talk to my mum more" Hahah! Get a grip people. Don't forget people "ooooooooorrrrhhhhhh Caitlin" mmmmmmmm
Do you find pleasure in posting these kinds of comments? Each to their own. We happen to consider Peter a online friend. Its very possible to get to know and enjoy someones chats. I for one enjoy listening to our older people. Remember we all grow old, including you.
I have seen the documentaries called 1900 House and 1940 House. The house you described was very much like the 1900 house. I was able to imagine your life very well.
Maybe the newspaper was to save money. Or maybe your father wanted to use butcher paper because he had plenty (no cost) and she found the newspaper a better low-cost option.
On the 1940s House the toilet paper didn't look soft at all. People must have crumpled them up good before using them, but it'd still be uncomfortable.
Enjoying your stories,.I asked my grandmother how it felt to be old and she told me there is an 18year old in here...I have never forgotten that. I can see the 18year old in you.
Like a couple of posts before me, I'm catching up and reading you in sequence. Can't wait for the next one, in fact don't have to wait, straight on I go.
I'm new to Peter's story's,I started at the first and am working my way thru,I don't want to jump ahead. I would like to add that the news paper cliping on the out house door may have been from the SUN NEWS PAPER! what a greate use for it!!
really enjoying your stories, thanks so much! Its hard to fathom the disrespectful comments posted. I just don't get it. The day is going to come when there won't be anyone to tell us and our children stories first hand as you do. Just wanted you to know there's one more person out here that appreciates you.
So very interesting, as always. And I always enjoy them more when you smile and chuckle a bit, as you did here! I'll be sure to watch next time. I've always wanted to know about sex.
newspapers-tomorows bog roll! How fitting! ;) I think it was always a case of why waste money when you have all that newspaper to get rid of? My mum tells me that they used newspaper in her house too, and my nan still had an outside loo when I was a child-I remember the spiders! They had a bathroom too by then, but the outhouse was good for emergencies!
Oral history is very important and adds to the younger generations understanding of the war years so you should be thanked for relating your memories and people like aidan40 are just ignorant.Great to see your videos back.Keep up the good work.
a story 4 u.mom was 9 and her and her sister all lived on a farm, well they went in cellar.were apples were. well long story short they ended up drunk,lololol
i think your wounderfull. you have helped my mined rember stories from my family who are all gone now. mom pass in 78, and born in 1919. she had be very very late in life ,,i allways wished i wrote the stories down,it nice to here yours peace from las vegas
My grandad told me about the street lights. He said that they were no street lights and the curtains were all black so when the Germans flew over they would see nothing at all below them.
wow i love you.. please can i adopt you as my grandad?? it is so strange to find someone of you're era who knows how to use a computer.. (i don't mean offence) please please please let me adopt you.. i love you're stories :) grandad :)
How many of you know this old guy personally? its like he is brain washing everyone into thinking his stories are legit, and for all we know, this man can be a petafile waiting to strike like a lepard and take your dignity with him.
I dont personally like these vids, only because they are pointless, and well, it only seems that this old man is lonely and feels like a teen with nothing better to do than post his "real" life stories from eons ago. so, for the rest of you youtuber's, im telling it all my damn self with get a fucking life.
Be so kind to tell us about how you got your lunch money stollen today. You don't have the right to say what EVERYBODY thinks of his stories. If you don't like him you shut the fuck up, he doesn't have to.
Probably no one will answer my query but why Norfolk is north while Norfolk family lived in Arundel? By the way Norfolk in the 16th century was a cunning bastard.
Would you mind if I wrote a paper about your experiences (based on your videos) for my Western Civilization clas? My professor has not yet had the chance to see any of your videos-- she teaches at least 4 classes and is *extremely* busy this semester, but I thought it would make a nice change from the usual book report.
I didn't want to undertake this project, however, without asking your permission first. I would not want to be another Sutherland. :)

Thank you Peter.I'm new to you. Your reply to the news story was on Utube main page. I watched it,then your next post, "the early war". After that,I remembered the article said you never said where you from. So your theme of nothing much changed with war struck me wrong. Thanks for Norwich (go canaries).I know the 1st yr Brits did "as we were chaps". I await next post, Norfolf was vital. You and Henrik can kill me if you want. I had to ask.
awesome Peter. Its fascinating. I love the fact that you have embraced this technology and are wanting to preserve the voices of the generations that came before us young folk. Your videos are entertaining and interesting.
Peter: My mother recalled her teenage years when German submarines would surface off Avalon Beach, New Jersey, flying the red German Navy ensign "reminding us they were there to get our ships leaving Brooklyn for Europe." Later in the war, German submariners came ashore and stole oil and resources from local gas stations, signaling to war weary Americans that Germany was in trouble and resorting to common robbery of gas stations for resources!
he he he - Squares of cut up newspaper at the WC- per my grandmother (almost the same age) she says that it's because toilet paper was very expensive in those times and most people couldn't afford it. Plus, it was simply unprinted "newspaper" - so most people chose to make their own.... in her fam, they preferred the sears catalog. (giggles) Funny what one remembers.

Another big thank you from Germanysl for this new video full of interesting details, told in your useful very humourous (? I have to apologize for my bad English...) way !!!As always, I am looking forward to the next one! Lots of love, dear Peter, take care!!
Hello - I know you are bombarded with requests to correspond - - My mother was born in 1936 and I have heard many stories of a "german" in America in WWII. I would love to correspond with you. My mother is alive and well today. We will celebrate her 70th birthdy on 9/16 of 2006. I've never had grandparents and it would be wonderful to correspond with you to hear the "other side" of the "pond"
Peter, Ive been following your vids since your first. and I am your biggest fan in New Orleans. I wish I had more to say and a way to be as elloquent as you, but just know that i eagerly await each new vid you produce and that you are very appreciated!
My grandparents had an outdoor privy right up into the 1960's. They supplied Sear's and Robuck and dried corn cobs... which sound's awful, but they are soft as velvet ... the one's that they used anyway. This was in Virginia. I used it a few times, with some fear, mostly of spiders and wasps, not because of the toilet paper or lack there of. I love you stories, can't wait to hear the S E X story.
I really like this video and I hope you do more about old war time stories. In my opinion history is one of the greatest things to learn about next to science. Keep on the good work and please continue posting videos!
Your stories bring to mind memories of my grandparents who also lived in a "two up-two down" with an outside toilet next to the coal bunker. They used old newspapers for toilet paper, mostly the Liverpool Echo.My grandmother had a diplay cabinet in her front room with various ornaments in it. Nothing unusual in that you may think, but she also had a variety of brass bomb fragments including several nose pieces delivered personally by the Luftwafer!
Peter, I love your stories. Those who say they are to long and boring, In my opinion, possibly just have short attention spans and are use to 60 second commercials. Your doing an awesome job. I love the details and find them most intresting.
WOW! What a great teaser at the end, saying you're going to talk about sex in your next video! Maybe even that idiot from The Guardian will watch...lol.
But seriously, I loved hearing your descriptions of your childhood home. It's a view of life most of us have never known. Thanks and much love from here in Texas.
Peter, with all your remembrances about the daily life of the British during the War, it made me think of one of my favorite films that aptly pictures the kind of house you grew up in. If you never saw it, the 1979 American film, "Yanks" with an all-star cast including Vanessa Redgrave and Rachel Roberts is excellent. Can't help but think of you in that film's setting when you talk about your youth...
Hmmm... Nice story to share. Pity about the people comment stupid, off-topic and irrelevant things like "bake your brain some more in pot", some people are prescribed stuff like this to ease quite alot of pain, like my grandad.
great story. i've got alot of old old photos of my grandfather overseas during the 2nd world war and in korea. maybe i will make a slideshow of those photos. take care
Hi, Peter! Just curious: do you spend story-telling time with ur great/grandchildren as you do with us here in YouTube? I can just imagine you as the ideal grandparent who has kids sitting on his lap and around him on the floor, earnestly waiting for the next story grandpa would tell them, enriching their minds with imagination, travelling time back to grandpa's past... anyway, keep up coming, Peter! Thanks!
are all u guys on pot cuz i dun kno wuts so good bout dis guy like how does he get 1000's of viewers hes just talking for 10 boring minutes about his life
If u don't appreciate what he's sharing, then get the hell out! Why do u need to diss him like this? Go find urself something better to do - like bake ur brain some more in pot.
When My husband and I were first togeather in 1992 we rented a one-bed flat in Swindon and the only heat source was a coal fire in the front room,
even young love didn't keep us warm at night we needed thick PJ's on. the bathroom was like a fridge as it was on an outside wall I took a lot of courage just to get washed in the morning!

Whenever I go to youtube and see a new vlog entry from you, I get excited. You never fail to put out an interesting story. I can't wait for your next one :)
Hi Peter, I wanted to tell you that your videos make a difference for the good in my life.
I lack some self esteem, so I'm often afraid of being myself in front of others. But watching you be so true to yourself with such dignity and elegance gives me the courage to start making some steps in the right direction.
I wish more people, no matter what their age is, would tell bits about their life in the manner you do. It is really interesting and inspiring.
ilike the story about the toaliat paper made out of news paper ,i was wondering if you had to wait for the news paper every day to go to the rest room,
thanks peter i love to here these stories :)

Hello - I know you are bombarded with requests to correspond - - My mother was born in 1936 and I have heard many stories of a "german" in America in WWII. I would love to correspond with you. My mother is alive and well today. We will celebrate her 70th birthdy on 9/16 of 2006. I've never had grandparents and it would be wonderful to correspond with you to hear the "other side" of the "pond"
god bless

My grandparents had an outdoor privy right up into the 1960's. They supplied Sear's and Robuck and dried corn cobs... which sound's awful, but they are soft as velvet ... the one's that they used anyway. This was in Virginia. I used it a few times, with some fear, mostly of spiders and wasps, not because of the toilet paper or lack there of. I love you stories, can't wait to hear the S E X story.

Your stories bring to mind memories of my grandparents who also lived in a "two up-two down" with an outside toilet next to the coal bunker. They used old newspapers for toilet paper, mostly the Liverpool Echo.My grandmother had a diplay cabinet in her front room with various ornaments in it. Nothing unusual in that you may think, but she also had a variety of brass bomb fragments including several nose pieces delivered personally by the Luftwafer!

Peter, with all your remembrances about the daily life of the British during the War, it made me think of one of my favorite films that aptly pictures the kind of house you grew up in. If you never saw it, the 1979 American film, "Yanks" with an all-star cast including Vanessa Redgrave and Rachel Roberts is excellent. Can't help but think of you in that film's setting when you talk about your youth...

Hi, Peter! Just curious: do you spend story-telling time with ur great/grandchildren as you do with us here in YouTube? I can just imagine you as the ideal grandparent who has kids sitting on his lap and around him on the floor, earnestly waiting for the next story grandpa would tell them, enriching their minds with imagination, travelling time back to grandpa's past... anyway, keep up coming, Peter! Thanks!

Peter,
When My husband and I were first togeather in 1992 we rented a one-bed flat in Swindon and the only heat source was a coal fire in the front room,
even young love didn't keep us warm at night we needed thick PJ's on. the bathroom was like a fridge as it was on an outside wall I took a lot of courage just to get washed in the morning!

Hi Peter, I wanted to tell you that your videos make a difference for the good in my life.
I lack some self esteem, so I'm often afraid of being myself in front of others. But watching you be so true to yourself with such dignity and elegance gives me the courage to start making some steps in the right direction.
I wish more people, no matter what their age is, would tell bits about their life in the manner you do. It is really interesting and inspiring.
Have a nice day!
